Lottie Consalvo, Strong Hold, 2025, acrylic on canvas, 102x122cm
Lottie Consalvo transcends the boundaries of the visible and tangible, pushing into the mind’s capacity to explore the unbound possibilities of our existence and what lies beyond. Her work navigates the intersections of the physical, internal and limitless—challenging conventional notions of reality and urging us to embrace what is unseen and unknown.
At the core of Consalvo’s practice lies a profound belief in the mind’s expansiveness, which she posits is a greater force than the physical world. She articulates an interest in our internal world, drawing out towards invisible worlds; beyond what we know to be true. Here, the mind is not confined to our physical existence, but extends into realms of imagination and dreams. Consalvo suggests that our internal experiences can surpass our external realities, and invites us to question the nature of what we perceive as real.
In LONG DAWN, Consalvo’s symbolic language, rich with ambiguity and potential, is conveyed through painting, sculpture and video—showing how the mind creates its own language, a form of communication that goes beyond the tangible.
Opening event: Thursday 3 April, 6-8pm
